How to delete leftover script parameters when the script record is deleted already

AI generated answer (using internal Slack threads):

Based on the conversations, it seems that you cannot directly delete script parameters when the script record is already deleted. However, you can use a workaround to achieve this. You can use a User Event (UE) script to trigger code when a record is deleted. In the

afterSubmit

function of the UE script, you can perform the necessary operations to delete the leftover script parameters. However, it's important to note that the

context.request.parameters

object, which is used to access URL parameters, is only available in the

beforeLoad

function. Therefore, you might need to store the URL parameters in a scripted field in the

beforeLoad

function, and then reference this field in the

afterSubmit

function. Here is a rough idea of how you can do this:

javascript
function beforeLoad(context) {
    if (context.type === context.UserEventType.DELETE) {
        // Store the URL parameters in a scripted field
        var urlParameters = context.request.parameters;
        context.newRecord.setValue({
            fieldId: 'custrecord_url_parameters',
            value: JSON.stringify(urlParameters)
        });
    }
}

function afterSubmit(context) {
    if (context.type === context.UserEventType.DELETE) {
        // Retrieve the URL parameters from the scripted field
        var urlParameters = JSON.parse(context.newRecord.getValue({
            fieldId: 'custrecord_url_parameters'
        }));

        // Perform the necessary operations to delete the leftover script parameters
        // ...
    }
}

Please note that this is a general idea and you might need to adjust the code according to your specific needs. ****** Disclaimer: This response was generated by an artificial intelligence assistant based on previous conversations from multiple Slack channels, and may contain inaccuracies or mistakes. ******
